Take a look around you and ask yourself how you got there. Then work to changing all the things so that next time you get sober, you can work better to stay that way. Relapse is not a failure, its a speed-bump. Its so easy for addicts to think of themselves as failures when they relapse, but all that does is hurt your confidence and self esteem...............2 things one needs to make change in the first place. That is how the vicious cycle works. You drink, you feel low, the lowness keep you down, when you are down, you drink again. See how that works? So how can you work on your confidence? First step is realizing the fact you are willing to try sobriety at all is a sign you have something in you that wants more out of life, something that is screaming out for change and to be better. You haven't given up, so don't beat yourself up. Work through it, learn, try again.
